For more than a year a young Aldergrove family struggled to find an effective treatment for the persistent health problems dogging Carter Mantta. Two-year-old Carter appears perfectly normal when you first meet the chubby and happy little boy. However, he’s had frequent bouts of pneumonia and other infections that have baffled medical and health professionals — until this past January when specialists at B.C. Children’s Hospital finally arrived at the right diagnosis. Carter has a very rare genetic disorder named chronic granulomatous disease — also known by its acronym, CGD — in which immune system cells called phagocytes do not function properly. Certain immune system cells in Carter’s body are unable to kill some types of bacteria and fungi and the disorder leads to longterm and recurrent infections. And while long-term antibiotic treatments may help to reduce infections, early death is typically a result of repeated lung infections. Carter’s parents, Nathalie and Carl, and his four-year-old brother Brayden, have been trying everything they could think of to help him “just be a normal little boy again,” says Nathalie. “When Carter was three months old we made our first doctor’s visit. They thought his bronchitis may have been caused by a virus or allergies,” said Nathalie. “We spent money on a naturopath, and tried putting him on a dairy-free diet and getting rid of all our carpets in case it was allergies. We made many more doctor visits, testing for strep or staph infections, viruses. Tests for cystic fibrosis and celiac disease came back negative.” Carter had two bad bouts of pneumonia in August and January, when the CGD diagnosis was made. Nathalie says that, in layman’s language, CGD means that Carter’s white blood cells are unable to perform the “bleaching” process to kill bacterial infections. “His red blood cells and platelets are fine, but his white blood cells have only 0.04 per cent capacity, compared to the 100 per cent capacity of most people,” said Nathalie. For this reason, Carter is on prophylactic antibiotics, while the family awaits stem cell transplant surgery scheduled for May at Children’s Hospital. This is a relatively new and promising procedure for CGD, but it comes with no guarantee of success. continued, PAGE 5

Ian, the owner of the health food store couldn’t believe his ears. He had finally found the perfect product to stop his customer’s miseries. This is what every owner of a health food store dreams about, a natural product that receives so many outstanding testimonials on such a wide variety of health issues. “I had recommended a new product called LeafSource, which we recently started carrying. We have had tremendous success with this product, and almost everyone we have recommended it were so bad just one week earlier, to over the last few months has that the pain was unbearable but come back and thanked us over now has completely subsided.” and over again” said Ian.

for life back. Millions of people seek treatment for their joint and inflammation problems by resorting to expensive, toxic prescription drugs (i.e. NSAIDs) with multiple side effects. These range from nausea and vomiting to serious intestinal disorders (bleeding, gas, pain) and even kidney and liver failure. Isn’t that too large a price to pay for a little pain relief!? LeafSource is a safe alternative to these destructive antiinfl ammatory drugs that cause more problems than they solve. There are absolutely no side effects and it doesn’t interfere with any other medications. Controlled experiments and observations have revealed that LeafSource is a potent antiinflammatory that has been shown to bring a reduction to inflammation and pain within a few days. People notice great results in terms of more energy and less pain by taking anywhere from 2 to 6 capsules/ day. Typical maintenance is usually 1 capsule twice daily. This product gets results! LeafSource is scientifically validated through more than 10 years of research at 4 universities, including the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mercer University. Aside from its incredible anti-infl ammatory and pain reducing ability, it has also been shown to improve the performance of your daily nutrition and vitamin programs.

LeafSource has also been shown to help enhance energy levels, improve intestinal health, strengthen hair, skin and nails and improve immune function. To see someone go from intense pain to a new lease on life within a week is truly incredible. Imagine being able to move freely without pain. Who wouldn’t want to get out of bed in the morning with more energy? It’s amazing how much of this stuff we take for granted, until it’s gone! Ian adds, “I often recommend that Leaf- Source be taken with other natural joint products in order to help them work better and provide even faster relief. One of the things I hear most often from people who have tried LeafSource is they just plain feel better, have more energy and less pain. We’re so conﬁ dent, we guarantee LeafSource 100%!

Sign restrictions proposed NATASHA JONES Times Reporter

John GORDON/Langley Times

The roundabout at Five Corners in Murrayville is currently plastered with federal election signs. Langley Township is proposing a bylaw that would restrict election signs in roundabouts and medians, but only during municipal elections.

An amendment to Langley Township’s Highways and Traffic Control Bylaw will make signs on medians and roundabouts illegal during municipal election campaigns. However, placing election signs at these public locations remains legal for provincial and federal campaigns. “I have been waiting for years to do this,” commented Councillor Mel Kositsky, when council tentatively approved the change on March 28. Final adoption of the bylaw is expected later this spring. “It’s an eyesore. It’s a hazard,” Kositsky said. “It’s absolutely crazy.” Other councillors saw it differently. “I think this is overwhelmingly restrictive,” Councillor Kim Richter said. “I think it’s going to handicap candidates. It’s unfair and it’s undemocratic.” The bylaw amendment does not impact provincial and federal campaigns because these come under the jurisdiction of the election acts of those senior governments.

Mobile home park gets backing Times Reporter

Township council has backed Langley Grove Estates’ application to connect to the Greater Vancouver Sewerage system. Langley Grove has 225 mobile homes, which were built in the 1970s at 24330 Fraser Hwy. The park has become a source of concern from an environmental, operational and maintenance point of view, the most serious of which is its septic system. It consists of an oxidation ditch, and tile field which has been replaced several times. A new sewer trunk line could ease environmental concerns. When the issue first came to council in March, two residents urged council to reject the request for sewer hookup to the mobile home park which sits over the Hopington Aquifer. It is the aquifer that provides the residents with their water, and is replenished by discharge from septic fields. Connecting to the regional sewer line, which was installed last year, will cause the water table to drop further. Development above the aquifer has been at a virtual standstill since the late 1980s when council, concerned about nitrate contamination of the underground water source, imposed a moratorium. Despite

that, the water table continues to drop. One resident calculated in graphic terms the amount of water Langley Grove siphons off the aquifer: the 225 units use 240,000 litres of water a day, 10 times the amount required to fill an Olympic-sized swimming pool. On Monday, a majority of council backed Langley Grove’s bid, having earlier rejected a proposal that the mobile home park be compelled to hook up to regional water. Kevin Larsen, the Township’s manager of water resources, said that it will be 2014 before regional water is brought to the area, and then it will be about three kilometres from Langley Grove. Larsen said that he did not know if the mobile homes have water conservation measures such as low-flush toilets and lowflow shower heads. Councillor Kim Richter urged council to insist that if Langley Grove wants sewer connection, it must hook up to water. “The Township should take a stand. Everyone who is going to hook up to the sewer line is going to have to hook up to water. It’s a no brainer,” she said. “This is private property and like any other private property owner they are going to have to pay the cost,” she added. There was concern that Langley Grove

ParkLane Homes’ rezoning application was formally adopted in bylaw form on Monday, April 11. In contrast to the public hearing which required four separate evenings last June, there was no discussion before council voted 7-2 for the rezoning bylaw and development permit application. Mayor Rick Green and Councillor Kim Richter voted against them. The vote brings to an end one of the most contentious development proposals for Langley, and certainly Fort Langley. It allows ParkLane to embark on the final development of the residential community of Bedford Landing which overlooks the Bedford Channel, west of Glover Road. The property was once the McDonald Cedar sawmill. The development comprises two apartment buildings with a total of 70 units, with a commercial element on the ground floor, and an 11-unit live-work townhouse project. The larger of the two projects will be built on the north side of Billy Brown Road, and the smaller on the south side. Combined, the projects will cover 1.78 acres. After the last night of public hearings on June 22, council referred concerns to staff, which led the developer to make what a report to council called “a number of significant revisions” to the proposal. These include reducing the height of the eastern apartment building to three storeys from four, reducing the number of apartment to 70 from 77, creating a wider breezeway between the two larger townhouse buildings to provide more view, sunlight and public access, and reducing site coverage to 47 per cent.

could expand. Councillor Mel Kositsky asked whether the residential designation could be changed to single-family housing. “Probably not,” Larsen replied. Administrator Mark Bakken advised that a change in designation would require a rezoning application, “so ultimately that consideration is under council’s control.” Rick Le Bouthillier, speaking for the company which owns the property, said that Langley Grove’s aging septic field and a high water table, which has sometimes left effluent at ground level, are “ongoing challenges.” The owners cannot upgrade the sanitary treatment system or build a new one. “We don’t have anywhere to get rid of the effluent on site,” he said. The only long-term viable solution is to connect to municipal sewer, Le Bouthillier said. Asked by Richter if there are plans to expand, he said the company would like to, but is restricted because the land is in the ALR. What about hooking up to regional water, Richter asked. “It’s not feasible,” Le Bouthillier replied, adding that the company has not yet worked out details of how it will recover the cost of hookup.

Two men are currently on trial in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster for the March 28, 2009 murder of Kyle Barber. The trial of Albert Jacob Jackman, 24, and Gregory Michael Barrett, 32, began on Monday. Jackman is charged with firstdegree murder, while Barrett faces a charge of manslaughter. Two men came to Barber’s home at 244 Street and Fraser Highway. The trial was told on Tuesday that Jackman and Barrett said they were neighbours, and then pushed their way in. Barber’s girlfriend testified that Jackman accused Barber of robbing him. Barber, 24, was stabbed around 11 p.m. after a fight broke out inside the house. Neighbours called 911 after hearing a woman crying frantically. Barber was found in the front yard, bleeding from several stab wounds to his face, head and chest. He was rushed to hospital where he died.

Two-year-old boy is first B.C. Free Greenhouse Tours diagnosis of CGD in 20 years 6690-216 St, Langley

“It all depends on the body,” says Nathalie. “There is a chance of rejection and infections. “The chemo and radiation could trigger other factors. “There is a very high risk, but without the transplant the doctor said he might live to 19; he can’t say for sure.” When Carter enters hospital in May for the transplant he will have to stay for another three to four months, and it will take a year or so for a full recovery. Carter’s medical care is covered by the B.C. Medical Plan, and since the diagnosis was made his antibiotics prescription has also been covered, to the tune of $178 every two weeks. This is a huge relief to the family, as Nathalie has been unable to work since Carter was born. She has stayed at home for the past year or so in order not to introduce any pathogens that could make him sick. The family relies on Carl as the sole breadwinner in his work as an electrician. However, after paying the mortgage on their modest home, along with other normal household bills, there is not a lot of money left over for other looming expenses. “I can stay at Ronald McDonald House for $25 a day, while Carter’s at Children’s and that’s very cheap, but after three months it adds up. Even the gas to go into Vancouver every day is a lot of money,” says Nathalie. “And on one income we can’t afford daycare or a nanny for Brayden while I’m away and Carl’s at work. And we can’t afford to relocate into Vancouver either. I just don’t know what to do.” Nathalie has talked to a social worker at the hospital, who told her that other than saving their receipts for next year’s tax return, there are not a lot of options.

Two-year-old Carter Mantta sits on his mother Nathalie’s lap, while father Carl holds brother Brayden. Carter requires a stem cell transplant next month at Children’s Hospital to cure a rare blood disorder that endangers his life. Friends and supporters in the community have offered some help, but unfortunately their extended family is either too far away or too elderly to help provide care for Brayden. “Carl is feeling all the stress. He feels bad because he can’t take the time off,” says Nathalie. Carter is the first CGD diagnosis in B.C. in 20 years — there are only a handful across the continent each year — and Nathalie has spoken to the B.C. mother of the two men who were born with CGD over 30 years ago. One of her sons has passed away but the other is now 35 years old and leads a fairly normal life. For his part, Carl puts on a brave face and says “the worst part is over,” now that they know what the problem is, and he’s confident Carter will come through with flying colours. Nathalie and her family are

appealing to local service groups, individuals and politicians, in the hope that the community will find it in their hearts to help her family. Aldergrove Save-on-Foods willraise funds for Children’s Hospital and the Mantta family at the store’s annual charity garage sale, set for April 30, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The first $3,000 of funds raised will go to Children’s Hospital, with all funds over and above that amount to go to the Mantta family. The store will accept donations to the garage sale (no large furniture or appliances) until April 28. Call Jim, Laura or Mike at 604-607-6555. In addition, an account has been set up at the Royal Bank in Aldergrove. Donors may deposit to “transit #00160, account #5029954” to help the family.

ACCIDENTS AND DIMINISHED EARNING CAPACITY If you’re injured in a car crash, caused by the fault of another, you could suffer many losses. One loss may be work-related – you may be forced to find an easier but lowerpaying job and be unable to earn as much income as before the accident. Lawyers call this loss “diminished earning capacity.” It’s often part of a compensation claim by personal injury plaintiffs. But what if your earnings don’t go down after the accident? Can you still win damages for “diminished earning capacity”? After all, you might think that because your income didn’t decrease, your ability to earn hasn’t been diminished. Not true. A recent BC case illustrates that this approach is too simplistic and can be unfair to the injured person. The plaintiff (Colleen), 46, was injured in two car accidents (one right after the other). She hurt her neck, shoulder and upper back, resulting in chronic widespread pain later diagnosed as fibromyalgia. Before the accidents, she was a highly energetic and motivated individual. She had a fast-paced job as an executive secretary to the president of a large organization, which she loved and was ideally suited for. All that changed. Because of her chronic pain – which was only controlled or made endurable by large amounts of pain killers and anti-inflammatory medications – she could no longer handle the demands of her job, nor the three-hour (both ways) commute it involved. Colleen sold her house to move to a smaller home with fewer stairs. Because of her injuries, she also found a new, less demanding job that only involved a 20-minute commute. Having to switch jobs “was a huge blow” and it “was far less rewarding in terms of job satisfaction,” said the judge who decided her case. Yet, by happenstance, her new job paid her a better salary, and so she didn’t suffer an immediate

loss of earnings. Still, her lawyers were able to prove that she suffered a reduction in her capacity to earn. The circle of secretarial or administrative positions that she could compete for in future had narrowed because of the limitations imposed by her injuries. In short, she became “less marketable as an employee” and less capable overall of taking advantage of all employment opportunities that might come her way. She became “less valuable to herself as a person capable of earning income in a competitive labour market.” As well, based on the evidence, the judge concluded that there was a “real and substantial possibility” that Colleen would have moved up in her organization’s hierarchy had she been able to stay there – at an increased salary and with improved health and pension benefits. And there was a real possibility that because of her injuries (which had plateaued or possibly could even worsen), her “working career would likely end earlier than it would have if the accident hadn’t occurred.” As such, she proved that she had suffered a loss in her capacity to earn future income. Taking all these factors into account and weighing the probabilities, and recognizing this involved an exercise in judgment not a mathematical calculation, the judge awarded Colleen $425,000 for diminished earning capacity. If you’re injured in an accident, consult your lawyer. He or she can help you receive the fair compensation that you may be entitled to receive.

The end of an era

Impartiality needed for looking into police

his week marks the end of an era at The Times. Photographer John Gordon, who has taken thousands of photographs and met an enormous number of Langley residents in his 22 years here, is leaving. The Times will not be the same without him. Gordon has been much more than simply a newspaper employee. He has made many strong connections in this community. He has published two photography books about Langley, and has instructed hundreds of budding photographers in both the mechanics and art of photography. His photos are to be found all over the community — in people’s homes, in Township hall, on murals and even on electrical panel boxes in Langley City. He has been a wonderful ambassador for The Times as he met many people over the years, and has won numerous awards at the provincial, national and international level. He’s not leaving Langley. He will be an integral part of the community and will conduct workshops, offer photography shows and stay involved in other ways. Gordon has a big heart for the less fortunate. His interest in Tristan Smith, a young boy with arthrogryposis, sparked a wonderful photo essay that struck a chord with readers and led to a drive in the community to help out the Smith family. A trip he made to Kenya inspired him to begin working with the Langley Rotary Club to raise funds for Third World education projects, and also for a meal program at Nicomekl Elementary. His interest in people in other parts of the world has been fostered by many trips he has made to other countries. His photos from these trips are among those he regularly shows. When The Times organized a farewell luncheon, he requested that as a going-away gift, employees donate funds toward providing mosquito nets for children in West Africa, where mosquito-borne diseases often dramatically shorten lives. John Gordon is a photographer with a genuine interest and delight in people and a global conscience. He’s an integral part of Langley, and it’s been The Times’ great good fortune to have him.

he case of police in Prince George using a Taser on an 11-year-old boy raises numerous questions. But one is the same question that has been asked numerous times before — most notably in the case of Robert Dziekanski, who died in 2007 after being Tasered by the RCMP in the Vancouver airport. Why are police conducting investigations into the conduct of other police officers? It doesn’t take a genius to conclude that there could be a concern about bias, even with different police departments investigating each other. There is a long tradition among police officers of camaraderie, support and “watching each other’s backs.” The West Vancouver officers charged with investigating this latest incident may well be able to conduct an impartial review. But it is difficult to shed the appearance their conclusions could be tainted. The best way to give the public an assurance of an unbiased report is simply to ensure reviews of police conduct are conducted by an independent civilian panel. Retired judge Thomas Braidwood, who conducted the public inquiry into Dziekanski’s death, has been calling on the provincial government to create such a body, but nothing has been done. It is time for our government to help restore confidence in our police forces. The best way to do that is to keep them at arm’s length when their conduct is called into question. —Salmon Arm Observer (Black Press)

This is a democracy? Editor: Canada’s a democracy? We vote for our Members of Parliament (note I did not say “representatives”), similarly to the American House. However, when an American representative disagrees with the party, he’s unpopular. When a Canadian representative disagrees with the party, he’s unemployed. The only way to guarantee you get to vote for our nation’s leader is by joining every federal party. We have senators — who are appointed by the leader we don’t vote for. We have a governor-general, the last checkpoint for integrity before a law is created. This person is appointed by the leader we don’t vote for. The true north — strong and free? Jordan Braun, Langley

Campbell’s ghost haunts BC Hydro headquarters

Langley Times file photos

Four candidates for MP in Langley are (clockwise from top) Mark Warawa, Rebecca Darnell, Carey Poitras and Piotr Majkowski.

Editor: It seems that the ghost of Gordon Campbell is still stalking the executive suite at BC Hydro. The decision by BC Hydro to install ‘smart’ meters seems like a real dumb move. It now appears that waiting for Energy Minister Rich Coleman to review their long-term capital spending plan is a waste of time. Not surprising, as this was always in the cards and Coleman can add nothing to this process, as an ex-RCMP constable who has operated way above his pay grade for years. We are being asked to believe that this move will pay for itself by 2030 (another ridiculous, far-out-on-the-horizon date favoured by politicians who will have long retired by then) by reducing electricity theft by illegal marijuana growers. And how do we know that this will save $100 million per year? A consultant said so in 2006 (after BC Hydro had earlier said it was $12 million). As an ex-consultant, I am deeply suspicious of any figures produced by this clan of highpaid charlatans. They will give you any num-

ber you wish. If you don’t like $12 million, how about $100 million? Who knows? The joke is that marijuana might soon be legal in Canada and Hydro will be paid to help grow this stuff. In the meantime let’s fire nearly 400 meter readers and save $10 million a year — that’s how big business usually improves its bottom line. Oh, and let’s not mention that these guys were just as capable of reading an electric meter outside your property as Hydro will from their head office, using these expensive $350 million ‘smart’ meters with most of that huge sum going to U.S. companies. Spotting the grow-ops must be really sophisticated software. Smart business decision? No way. Smart politics? Ask Gordo. This is a costly decision that should be deferred until after the next provincial election. Let the voters decide if this makes sense to them. H. Spencer, Aldergrove

Closure request was due to accidents Editor: In response to a recent letter published in The Times (March 16) about the 200 Street and 0 Avenue intersection, I would like to comment by letting your readers know that I and other residents in the High Point Estates sub-division have resided in Langley for many years. Our children attended local schools and participated in community events in Langley, so it is very disturbing to read comments stating they allowed people to move into their neighbourhood, or to quote exactly “my neighbourhood.” As for the reasons we requested to keep the entrance at 0 Avenue closed, it is not as your reader suggests, to exclude others from the

neighbourhood. In fact, it has been a real pleasure meeting other nearby residents from outside of our subdivision along the walking and riding trails. Many we know on a first-name basis. The reason for the request was the number of accidents we have had on 200 Street. In addition, we have horse and pedestrian trails crossing both the top and bottom of this road. In addition, we seem to be a target for the many thieves, which prompted us to contact the RCMP on numerous occasions. They also supported this entrance being closed. Initial development plans are not without

flaws and council needs to be flexible and use common sense and review and make changes when needed. It seemed logical to me to request to keep this entrance closed, as it did to many of the local riders who use the trails. Increasing traffic on an already dangerously busy road, just for the convenience of a few, does not make sense. We are thankful that council made the decision to support this petition and are hopeful that your reader will have a better understanding that safety needed to come before convenience. Val McAvoy, Langley

Was permission asked from all council members? Editor: This is a response to “Budget system needs to change” (The Times, March 30.) I trust that Councillor Charlie Fox (a charter member of the gang of six slate) followed his and Councillor Jordan Bateman’s own guidelines, and obtained permission from the whole of council, before asking staff to provide summaries of salaries and expenses of all of council. This is especially relevant in the light of their loud criticisms of the cost of the mayor’s picture in newspaper notices of the Mayor’s forum and the cost of coffee at municipal events. I would contend that for an elected councillor or mayor to be effective, some significant

expenses are necessary and justified. I have in fact been wasting my time and effort questioning the above issues. As we all know, the gang of six slate acts without any concern for constituents’ wishes. Like the slate in former mayor John Scholtens’ day, they do what they want and freely and arrogantly tell the voters what is good for them. They could care less about what the voters really want. What we want is fair democratic representation, responsible spending and no tax increases during fiscal hard times. It’s all about attitude. We are not your piggy bank. You are not entitled to whimsical arbitrary tax increases. All that is required is amortizing large capital proj-

ects over longer periods and holding the line against unreasonable municipal union featherbedding demands. It would be a big help if municipal staff were not in charge of the size of the staff and hiring, as this is classical “fox in charge of the fiscal hen house monetary control” — which is out of control. Our municipality must have the will to practise competent fiscal behaviour and policy. A fair and ethical political system debates how our money is spent based on divergent ideology, but we can’t spend money we don’t have. Bob Moats, Langley

Conservatives provide good economic management Editor: With the federal election date close, the electorate must be ready to vote and make the right decision as to who to vote for. One of the deciding factors must be the economic record of the present government and where we stand in relation to other countries. The present Conservative government has managed so that we are now at the top of the G7 countries in respect to economic performance. Another reference is the Economic Freedom of the World Report, compiled by think tanks in 80 countries. They judge countries based on the following criteria: size of government, expenditures, taxes and enterThe

prise; legal structure and security of property rights; access to sound money; freedom to trade internationally; and regulation of credit, labour and business. The 2010 report shows Canada at being seventh in the world,up from 13th when the Liberals were in power. A higher rating is expected when the 2011 report comes out later this year. The above is supported by the value of our Canadian dollar in relation to other world currencies and the rise in value of the Canadian TSX stock exchange. Money is flowing into Canada, as the world believes we are a safe

country and this helps our economy. Most countries in the world are having financial problem as a result of the 2009 downturn, but Canada has come through in very good shape considering we are part of the global economy. The next few years should produce balanced budgets and a return to reducing the deficit. This should help us cover the extra costs associated with an aging population and greatly increasing costs in health care. Let us keep on the right course and return our Conservative covernment with a majority. Eric Bysouth, Langley

Aldergrove intersection dangerous Editor: This letter is in regards to the intersection of 264 Street and 24 Avenue. On April 11, a young driver along with our 18-year-old son were coming home in a small Honda Civic, southbound on 264th and signalled to turn left onto 24th. As they were waiting to let an oncoming car pass by, a semi-truck passed them on their left side at full speed and just had enough time to squeeze back in the right lane again to avoid the oncoming traffic. We frequently check rear view mirrors when making the same turn at this intersection. It should be upgraded before someone gets killed. One simple thing to do is make this a no passing section of highway by painting solid lines on this section of road. A better solution would be to install a stop light with a turn lane, considering that the subdivision north of 24 Avenue and east of 268 Street has grown considerably over the past five to 10 years. A church has also recently opened on the corner of 24 Avenue and 267 Street, which increases the traffic from 264th. Even the expensive route would be cheaper than losing a few young lives. Aubrey and Jane Vandergaag, Aldergrove

Draven Vorauer, 9, of the Aldergrove Snipers, will lead theVancouver Canucks onto the ice at tonight’s (Friday) playoff game against the Chicago Blackhawks.

A budding young goalie has not only snagged prime seats for his family at Friday’s NHL playoff game between the Vancouver Canucks and Chicago Blackhawks, but will also lead the hometown heroes onto the ice. Draven Vorauer is ecstatic that he has won the honour of wearing his Aldergrove Minor Hockey Association goalie uniform on the Rogers Arena ice for the opening ceremonies’ skate, as well as standing at attention alongside his hero, Roberto Luongo, for the singing of the national anthems. Following the ceremonies, Draven and three family members will be escorted to their seats for the game. Draven, aged nine, won the memorable prize in a draw at Save-on-Foods. His mother, Robin, says it caps off a “Cinderella” season for Draven, whose initiation level team is the Aldergrove HR4-1 Snipers, and she hopes some of the Snipers’ magic rubs off on the Canucks. As reported last month in The Aldergrove Star, the Snipers started their season last year as true underdogs, but came back with a vengeance to win most of the season’s games and the Aldergrove Spring Tournament. It has been a team effort, but Draven’s prowess as a goalie was key to those victories. Draven moves into atom league next season, and here’s hoping that he can bring some Stanley Cup mojo to Aldergrove arena.

José Figueroa and his son José Ivan, (holding banner) have traveled from Langley to Ottawa by bus to advocate for family rights and, specifically, to plead Figueroa’s case to stay in Canada.

Tour ‘accomplished so much’ from PAGE 4

En route, father and son have been making public appearances to urge the government to intervene and overturn the order deporting him back his native El Salvador. In Regina, the younger Figueroa addressed an estimated crowd of 400 people at a church. Father and son have also done several radio interviews. “We have accomplished so much,” Figueroa said.“I have made many contacts ... talked to hundreds of people

on the street.” Figueroa, who has lived in Langley for 13 years with his wife and three Canadian-born children, was ordered deported from Canada because of his involvement as a student with the left-wing Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN) during the civil war in El Salvador. He been told it will be seven to nine years before there is a ruling on his application to the ministry of public safety for “ministerial relief” that would allow him to remain in Canada.

Township chosen for project Free, up-to-date, and always available access to maps and information about the Township of Langley is now available online, thanks to a partnership with ESRI. ESRI is a world leader in geographic information systems (GIS) that provides mapping software to help users better understand and visualize facts. The company is embarking on a project that will pull together data from across Canada to create a seamless Community Basemap of all the country’s municipalities, and allow information to be shared from a variety of other sources. The Township is not only participating in the project, it has also been selected as one of two communities for a pilot project will enable the data to be automatically published from the Township to the ESRI site to help ensure that the information is always current. “This is another way for residents and people interested in the Township to look at our data,” said

Township information technology manager Steve Scheepmaker. “And because ESRI is getting this information from the source — us — the currency of the data will be much better.” The detailed basemap of the Township can be found at http:// www.tol.ca/f2A5Z. “Besides providing direct access to the Township’s mapping data, the Community Basemap program offers a means of distributing data through third party software developers,” said Township Geomatics Services manager Derik Woo. For example, if the developers of iPhone, Blackberry, Android, and web mapping applications use ESRI’s Community Basemap data, then the Township’s data will be made available to their users, Woo added. “In a time of fiscal restraint, this allows the Township to leverage outside resources to distribute information to citizens, future citizens, and even to encourage eco-

nomic development,”Woo said. One of the other benefits of the ESRI site is that users can ‘mash up’ the Township’s map with data from other sources. Custom maps can be made by searching through more than 1,200 data sets and adding on layers of information. Scheepmaker said that in the past, people who wanted GIS information had to make a request and pay a fee to obtain the information. Consultants working with the Township also had to go through municipal staff to get the mapping information they required. “Now they can just go to the website and grab what they need at their convenience,” said Scheepmaker. He noted that the ESRI partnership fits with the Township’s open data initiative to give the public free and immediate access to information, which includes an open data catalogue on the updated and completely redesigned website at tol.ca.

Politicians honoured Two Langley politicians were honoured for their service to libraries, at the B.C. Library Trustees Association conference on April 9 in Victoria. Township Councillor Grant Ward, who served on the Fraser Valley Regional Library (FVRL) board from 2002–2010, received the Super Trustee Award for his contributions to local libraries and for his work with the FVRL Board. He was commended for his frequent attendance at library events as well as his unwavering commitment to libraries as “jewels” of the community. Ward was applauded for the honour at Monday’s council meeting. Mayor Peter Fassbender, the current chairman of the FVRL board, received two awards: the Super Trustee Award,

in honour of his support of his local library, as well as the prestigious Nancy Bennett Merit Award for his outstanding service to B.C. libraries at regional and provincial levels. BCLTA paid special tribute to Fassbender who, when B.C.’s libraries faced the possibility of provincial funding cuts, lent his expertise to develop effective strategies that mitigated the crisis, and then exerted his influence to enhance public libraries’ relations with the provincial government. FVRD director Bill Dickey said that when a strong voice was needed to ensure the provincial government did not lose sight of the importance of the B.C. library system, Fassbender’s abilities “could not be surpassed.”

New look for Township website The Township has launched a new website with a different look and brand new features. It is still located at tol.ca, but the new site consolidates information onto fewer pages, provides easier access to meeting dates, agendas, and schedules, and links subject pages to a helpful Services and Contacts directory. Clean, modern, and easy to read, its goal is to get visitors the informa-

tion they need as quickly as possible. To do this, the new tol.ca home page and navigation system is broken into subjects such as Parks and Recreation, Find A Place, and Doing Business, rather than by municipal division, as was done previously. A greatly enhanced search function is provided, along with a new directory which lists common topics and key words alphabetically. Convo-

luted drop-down menus have been replaced with neat fly-out menus, and every page offers direct links to more information and continuous redirections to options worth exploring. A Document Library houses significant plans, reports, and documents such as bylaws and forms, and a new RSS (Real Simple Syndication) option allows job postings and news items to be sent directly to subscribers.

How did you become a photographer ? In 1983 some friends encouraged me to take my photographs to the local paper. The editor gave me three rolls of film from which I produced three photo stories. The following year I sold 200 photos to the paper (Campbell River Courier/Upper Islander) for princely sum of $7 each. Both Photo Life magazine and Birder’s World ran four-page spreads of my nature photography and soon after, I was on a new career path.

If you hadn’t become a photographer what would you like to be? A monk. Hardest part of your job? Documenting other people’s misfortunes. The fires, the accidents, the mayhem. In some way it has shaped the way I perceive the world. Who or what is your biggest influence? First and foremost, my family, whose love and support have guided me. Secondly, photographer Ernst Haas. His unique vision of the world was a revelation from the moment I first saw it. How do you recharge your batteries? Travel, nature photography, and as a fanatical football (soccer) fan.

It will be available nationally in stores and online on May 10. PBS is currently airing the Las Vegas special in the US. “This is something I’ve always wanted to do — record a live concert,” said Dusk. “Back in the old days, when music was king, there was no auto tuning or editing, you had to be as good as ever. Especially with live recordings, you have one shot at getting this right.” Matt Dusk performs live at Cascades Casino on Monday, April 18. Tickets are $25, available at www. ticketweb.ca and at guest services inside Cascades Casino, 20393 Fraser Hwy. Call 604-530-2211.

Topping up the retirement fund T

he Thoroughbred racing season got off to a great start this year with the announcement of a generous new industry funding initiative to benefit the New Stride Thoroughbred Adoption Society. After years of financial angst that sometimes left the New Stride volunteers wondering where the next bale was coming from, the non-profit organization that finds new homes and careers for retired racing horses will have the means to help more horses. The BC Thoroughbred Owners & Breeders Association and Hastings Racecourse have created a program to help New Stride that enables race horse owners to direct a portion of their winnings towards the care of retired race horses. “It’s a great start to the racing year. There are many horses looking for new homes, and this may allow us to take more horses into the program,” said Marcy Emery, president of New Stride. In the past, the group raised around $100,000 a year through racing industry programs, private grants from members of the racing and equestrian communities, and the annual Shedrow Market hosted by Barb Beaton of Fields and Flowers farmgate store in Campbell Valley. “Since we are all volunteers, all of that money goes to the care of the horses, most of whom are boarded at Allbury Farms in Abbotsford,” said Marcy. Some are sent to foster farms to receive specialized training. So far, around 90 New Stride horses have found new homes. Horses in the New Stride program are evaluated to assess their temperament and talents, and matched carefully with homes the volunteer riders and trainers deem suitable. “We are not selling horses. We are most concerned with finding a good match between horse and rider. “ We believe strongly in full disclosure, and tell a prospective owner everything about the horse, including vet history, temperament and training. These horses are not pasture pets or lawn ornaments, they are athletes looking for a new career.” A recent addition to

the New Stride program is Willie Khetchem, a promising young horse whose career was cut short by a wreck during a race in 2010. After being clipped by another horse rounding a corner to the finish line, Willie’s rider April

ANNE PATTERSON Friesen was thrown and badly injured. Willie was not injured but was

Most NDP members located in southwest B.C. TOM FLETCHER Black Press

The B.C. NDP is completing its first one member-one vote leadership contest on Sunday, with as many as three-quarters of its members coming from

the populous southwest corner of the province. That’s the system the B.C. Liberal Party changed for its vote in February, in an effort to balance influence beyond Metro Vancouver and southern Van-

couver Island. And Education Minister George Abbott, who pushed for that change as a leadership candidate, says the NDP’s decision will come back to haunt it. “I think they’ve sold people from rural

and northern British Columbia short by not moving to a weighted vote system,” Abbott said in an interview Tuesday. “If a half a dozen ridings end up determining who wins the leadership of the party, it may give them

some pause, I think, to consider whether to look at this in the future.” NDP leadership front-runner Mike Farnworth estimates that of the party’s 28,000 members, there are about 5,000 in Vancou-

ver, 7,000 in Surrey, another 2,000 in the suburbs north of the Fraser River and 7,000 on Vancouver Island. That’s a distribution of NDP members that roughly reflects the population of B.C., and the party will probably

review the one member-one vote system at its next convention, he said. “And I’m sure constituencies from rural B.C. will weigh in with their perspective,” Farnworth said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if we get resolutions saying, let’s go to a weighted system. I wouldn’t be surprised if you get resolutions saying go to a regional system.” Two rural contenders for the NDP leadership, Fraser-Nicola MLA Harry Lali and Powell River-Sunshine Coast MLA Nicholas Simons, both dropped out when they decided they couldn’t compete with the membership clout of urban candidates. Vancouver-Kingsway MLA Adrian Dix caused a stir when he brought in thousands of new memberships at the deadline for voting in the leadership contest. The NDP hosted a series of debates in every region of the province except the northeast, where the party has never had substantial voter support. And Farnworth said rural policies such as his proposal for an expanded northern development trust are what count. “At the end of the day it’s the person you choose,” Farnworth said. “You can have an idiot elected from Fort St. John and just because they’re from rural B.C. doesn’t mean they’re going to be a particularly good premier. Likewise, you could have somebody from Vancouver who might not be that good a leader in terms of even dealing with urban issues.”

parents of children in foster care,” said Kamloops family lawyer Brenda Muliner. She represents a couple in Nelson fighting to regain custody of their children who were apprehended by child protection workers in 2007. It took a year and a half to get a date for trial to decide permanent custody — September 2011 — by which time the kids will have been in government custody for four years. “It’s staggering,” Muliner said. “And it’s going to get worse.” Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond, B.C.’s Representative for Children and Youth, is also concerned. Child protection workers from the B.C. Ministry of Children and Family Development can knock on a door and remove children from a home based on evidence that is often disputed. That power exists, TurpelLafond said, on the understanding parents have a speedy right to challenge the removal, with the courts either upholding it and issuing a temporary

Longer delays for all sorts of court proceedings are the result of cuts in the number of provincial court judges in B.C., coupled with shortages of sheriffs, clerks and other support staff. Samiran Lakshman, president of the B.C Crown Counsel Association, calls the situation a “deliberate” and “systematic” stripping of the critical resources the justice system needs to function — a policy that increasingly exacts a human toll. Prosecutors worry not just that abused women will go back to violent partners, but also that memories of sexually abused children will fade, their testimony will be less persuasive, and offenders will go free. Families are also waiting longer for the courts to decide matters such as which parent will have custody of the children, finalizing divorces and setting child support payments. “It’s heartbreaking for the

So far, the accused 49-year-old West Kelowna man has spent one day in jail and had a 90-day driving suspension. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our dead son is relegated to a number in the system,â&#x20AC;?

Matthew Heenan was crossing a downtown Kelowna street with friends after leaving a nightclub Nov. 22, 2009 when he was mowed down by a drunk driver. The 23-yearold Coldstream, B.C. resident was pronounced dead just over an hour later. The driver was charged last August with impaired driving causing death and Matthew causing an accident Heenan resulting in death. Matthewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents, Mike and Jo Heenan, have now been told a preliminary inquiry wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen until March of 2012. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fearful the case against their sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accused killer will be thrown out on grounds of the unreasonable delay in getting to trial. Even if the trial proceeds by fall of 2012, that will be more than two years since charges were laid â&#x20AC;&#x201D; deep in the danger zone where judges can be compelled to agree the wait has violated the rights of the accused. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are desperate,â&#x20AC;?

review Superior quality 1 and 2 bedroom homes AND a 1.9% mortgage* We are very happy homeowners. Home ownership wasn’t something we’d considered until Cornerstone came along. One look at the showhome (nice) and a conversation with their mortgage-savvy sales team, and we were sold. We walked in on a whim, thinking, “There’s no way we can afford this”, and walked out on top of the world. Our folks agree — Cornerstone is a smart decision. Marcon has a great reputation; they’ve been around as long as we’ve been alive. And the best part is we can still afford to go on vacation, thanks to our low monthly payment.

Housing prices in Canada increased between 3.5 and 4.3 per cent in the first quarter of 2011. The numbers were released by the Royal LePage House Price Survey on Tuesday. While the rate of year-over-year price appreciation slowed slightly in the first quarter, home values continued an upward climb, which first began late in the second quarter of 2009. Low interest rates and a recovering economy continued to fuel activity in Canada’s housing market over the past year, leading to a country-wide increase in average prices. In 2011’s first quarter, a detached bungalow rose 4.3 per cent to $341,355, while standard two-storey homes rose 3.5 per cent to $379,388 and standard condominiums rose four cent to $237,919. “We expect house prices will continue to creep up, but most of the excess demand created by the initial drop in interest rates has been satisfied, and affordability continues to erode slowly, allowing the listings supply to catch up. In most markets, lower single digit percentage increases are more likely for the balance of the year,” said Phil Soper, the president and chief executive of Royal LePage Real Estate Services. UUUUU ParkLane Homes president Peeter Wesik has been named one of the 20 most influential people in residential construction for 2011. The list was released by BC Homes Magazine in co-operation with the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of BC. ParkLane has built more than 6,000 homes around the province, including projects throughout Langley. “It astounds me how these individuals give so much to our industry without expectation of praise, so it is gratifying for us as an association to be able to highlight their achievements and thank them,”said M.J. Whitemarsh, the chief executive officer of the CHBA BC. The 20 recipients will be honoured at a luncheon on June 3.

John GORDON/Langley Times

Brookswood’s Teddy Carr is brought down by a flying tackle from Aldergrove’s Tristan Buchner during junior boys rugby Tuesday afternoon at Brookswood. Aldergrove won 32-5. The Bobcats Grade 8 team was also in action, in exhibition play against the Betty Gilbert Raptors, with Brookswood falling 22-17. And in senior boys’ action this week, D.W. Poppy won 11-5, with Justin Dahlman scoring the ’Cats lone try.

Running after his goals GARY AHUJA Times Sports

Track has taken Stuart Ellenwood a long way. “I was the kind of kid who didn’t want to do too much when I was younger,” he admitted. “But I signed up for (track and field), went out for it and ended up having a lot of fun.” While he played some sports, mainly soccer and ball hockey, he was a self-described couch potato. “I didn’t have the motivation to go outside,” he explained, adding that he found himself getting tired and not being very active. But once he started running track, things changed. “I liked it, it was fun and it was something I was good at,” he said. This was five years ago, when Ellenwood decided he would join his sister, who was going out to sign up with the Langley Mustangs Track and Field Club. Now 18, Ellenwood has

progressed in the sport — he specializes in the 400m and 800m races — to the point that he will be running collegiately with the Simon Fraser University Clan track team next season. And just like his introduction to track came by following his sister to the sign-up, his choice of Simon Fraser came down to family influence as well, as Ellenwood admits he was a little bit biased towards the university. After all, both his parents attended the Burnaby school, so they were more than willing to share their memories of their alma ma4 ter with their 18-year-old son. “Everything they told me about it, I really liked,” he said.“And I don’t like being away from home too much, so this way I can stay close to my friends and family.” Ellenwood was also exploring schools in the United States, but ultimately chose to stay in the Lower Mainland.

Another factor was the reputation of Clan coach Brit Townsend, as well as the fact the team has some talented runners already. “Stuart has made great improvement over the last year and I know he will be a great addition to our program,” Townsend said. “It’s a great chance to better myself by training and competing against really strong runners,” Ellenwood said. SFU competes against American universities at the NCAA Div. 2 level. Kim Chapdelaine, one of his coaches with the Mustangs, expects Ellenwood to succeed as a freshman. “He will work exceedingly hard to make a mark,” she said. “He is probably going to be one of SFU’s premier athletes.” Chapdelaine said Ellenwood, a captain with the Mustangs, is an amazing leader because of his

personality, which she described as disciplined, focused and kind. And as for potential, once he grows into his body, Chapdelaine figures there is no reason Ellenwood can’t represent Canada. “Everyone’s goal is the Olympics,” he admitted. “I would definitely like to make a name for myself in the track world.” He has competed at the national level in the past, winning silver in the 800m and bronze in the 400m at the 2008 Canadian midget track and field championships, and then placing sixth in last year’s 400m race as the Canadian youth track and field championships. But before that, he still has his final high school season with the Langley Saints. At last year’s provincial championships, he won bronze in both the 400m and 4x100 relay events for LSS.

Two new people, both with ties to Simon Fraser University, will lead the Kwantlen Polytechnic University Eagles basketball programs next season. Stefon Wilson has been tapped head coach of the men’s program, while Dan Nayebzadeh is in charge of the women’s program. Wilson, originally from Detroit, played at Sault Ste. Marie’s Algoma University and was an assistant coach at Simon Fraser last season. “I value winning in every aspect of life and I plan in instilling those same values in my team both on and off the court,” he said. Nayebzadeh, from White Rock, was an assistant coach with the International Basketball League’s B.C. Titans in 2009, and last year was the head coach of Basketball B.C.’s Elite Development Program at the U16 level. Most recently, he has assisted the Canadian national team coaches at the Canadian Centre for Performance and Regional Training Centre. He was also an assistant with the SFU women’s team. “I am certain that my experiences under the tutelage of Bruce Langford at Simon Fraser University and the knowledge acquired from such renowned coaches as Allison and Mike McNeill, will assist me in creating a program that the Kwantlen community will be proud of,” Nayebzadeh said. The women’s program is hosting an identification camp for potential players on Sunday (April 17) at 2 p.m. at the school’s Surrey campus (12666 72 Ave.) It is open to all female basketball players Grade 11 and older.

TOURNEY A SUCCESS Close to $2,000 was raised for a scholarship named after former D.W. Poppy coach and teacher Greg Leino. Former Poppy students held the first annual Greg Leino Alumni Classic basketball tournament over the weekend, and in the finals, it was a team made up of grads from the 199495 classes edging the grads of 19992001 58-56 in the championship game. Jon Fast was the game’s most valuable player, while Neil McKinley won tournament MVP honours. Leino retired in 2009 after 34 years at the school, but is still involved as a volunteer. The scholarship, which was first presented last year, is awarded to a Poppy grad who best exemplifies the values Leino taught: excellence in athletics, academics and community.

minutes later when Alex Stasiuk struck from the top of the box. And Langley had ample opportunity to take the lead into halftime, only to be thwarted three times by posts and crossbars. They also shot wide on a penalty kick. The second half was much more defensive and it looked like Langley was going to rue its missed opportunities. But they finally converted for the winning goal following a scramble off a corner kick. A low shot clanked off the iron yet again, but this time Keenya Pierre was able to collect the rebound and send it into the empty net. From that point on, the Mustangs controlled play to advance to the semifinals. They will face Coquitlam Metro Ford on Sunday at Willoughby Community Park at 11 a.m.

Hot start to Blaze season Another game, another shutout victory for the Langley Blaze. The U18 Premier Baseball League powerhouse improved to 3-0 on the season after posting their third straight shutout, this time 10-0 over the White Rock Tritons. The teams squared off on Tuesday night at McLeod Park, in the Blaze’s home opener. Dustin Houle did the bulk of the damage, going 2-for-2 and driving in five runs, Justin Atkinson was 2-for-3 with three runs scored and three RBIs. Ricky Bertrand, with a pair, and Jerod Bartnik, drove in the other runs. Kyle Joel went the distance, allowing just one hit and one walk, while striking out eight as the game was called after five innings. The team is in Victoria on Saturday for a doubleheader against the Mariners (1-1) before returning home for a Sunday twin-bill against the Nanaimo Pirates (2-0). UUUUU After a first half where neither team could gain the upper hand, Langley United struck for the game’s lone goal in the 55th minute. Mattias Jahn made a great run down the left-side of the field and sent the ball across to Noah Owen. Owen took the pass and slotted the ball into the bottom corner and Langley won 1-0 over the Richmond United Selects. The two U13 boys’ soccer clubs matched up in the B.C. Coastal A Cup quarter-finals in Richmond. The victory advances Langley to the semifinals tomorrow (Saturday) at Willoughby Park against the North Vancouver Fury. Game time is 1 p.m. In the U13 B.C. Coastal B Cup quarter-finals, Langley United lost 3-0 to Coquitlam Metro Ford Nitro.

CAR CARE & REPAIR Green driving tips will help save money and the environment

With average gas prices around $1.35 per litre, more than 20 cents per litre higher than a year ago, here are some green tips from Be Car Care Aware to help you save money and keep you happy. 1. Keep tires properly inﬂated. Driving your vehicle with just one tire under-inﬂated by eight pounds per square inch will increase your vehicle’s fuel consumption by four per cent. 2. Tighten your gas cap. Be Car

Care Aware estimates that 22 million litres of gasoline vaporize into the atmosphere each year in Canada as a result of improperly tightened or missing gas caps. 3. Perform regular vehicle maintenance. This will improve gas mileage by an average of 4.1 per cent. 4. Replacing air ﬁlters regularly can improve gas mileage by as much as 10 per cent. 5. Replace spark plugs regularly. A

dirty spark plug causes misfiring which wastes fuel. 6. Observe the speed limit and use cruise control while on the highway. Save big bucks by cutting your highway cruising speed by 10 km/h. 7. Go inside instead of waiting in long lines at the drive-through window. Two average-sized light-duty vehicles sitting in the line-up for five minutes can waste enough gasoline to fill one coffee cup while at a drive-through.

BODYCRAFT

8. Combine trips. Several short trips taken from a cold start can use twice as much fuel as a longer multi-purpose trip covering the same distance. 9. Don’t haul unneeded items. Extra items in the trunk reduces fuel economy. Unused roof rack and accessories also add weight and drag. 10. Avoid quick starts and stops. Aggressive driving saves you only 2.5 minutes per hour but can use up to 39 per cent more fuel!

TPMS CHARGES MAY APPLY

The downside of keeping your winter tires on year round is that they wear out very quickly," In most conditions, you can usually get three or four seasons out of them before you have to replace the winter set when you're swapping them out with an all-season or summer tire. If you drive them year-round, the heat will wear away the specific winter tire compounds. You'll also sacrifice some cornering and grip if you leave them on throughout the year."
